CDMA should be able to do this quicker or maybe in real time. The neat thing is that now that this is CDMA based, it could be a feature such as PTT that we may see as an application for Andriod someday.


Are you high? All PTT on CDMA & GSM is an IP-based emulator, and they are NOWHERE NEAR as consisteltly fast as the true dispatch-based PTT service on iDEN.

The new Sprint Direct Connect supposedly does the best job of emulating PTT so far, but only time will tell if it is consistently as fast as iDEN-based PTT.

And don't forget, when the cell-phone channels all nut up in a local or regional emergency (hurricanes, earthquakes, wildfires, etc), your emulator-based PTT will stop dead, just like your cellphone does. The only PTT system that completely bypasses the PSTN is iDEN, which is why it has a bulletproof reputation of being the only system operational during large emergencies.

"CDMA should be able to do this quicker..." LOL, you ARE high!
